Going into the debate, there were certain inalienable truths. McCain is much better on foreign policy but not on the economy. Obama had much greater strength on the economy but not on foreign policy. In addition, he also had to show America that he was truly Presidential and hold his own alongside John McCain.
McCain was not able to fully convince us that his economic policy was sound; in fact after the charade of going to Washington to save the taxpayer from a debt worse than fate, he did nothing in this debate to comfort them. Obama showed a good grasp of foreign policy but more importantly he appeared confident and completely Presidential. For those not sure about voting for the black man, he sure gave them much to re-consider. Score this debate in favor of Obama.
